Check in was with bar staff. Front desk person not around. Breakfast was promised 0730-0930 but at 0745, the restaurant was still locked with a note telling late check ins to call a number. I couldn’t wait any longer to see if breakfast was indeed served as I had a train to catch. The train station is very convenient to this hotel.

A short walk from the train station which we liked. The room was on the ground floor which was nice as we didn’t have to carry our luggage up several flights of stairs.

Ok stay

Staff amazing but twice I've stayed in the bottom floor room next to the beer garden and it's noisy in the evening and can hear the bar chucking glass in the bins. Not to mention anyone in the beer garden can see into the room if curtains are not shut. TV didn't work at all.

Great position in Central Shrewsbury, parking was across the road, Staff was amazing and the breakfast in the morning was lovely but the carpet had quite a few stains and there were lots of light bulbs that were not working, but apart from that i would stay there again.
